Glad you like the images! While I shot many events back in the days of film and no preview screen, they have always been very challenging, and exhausting. The R3 reduced that burden by being so capable and noiseless at higher ISO settings. The answer to your question is "Yes", constant blending of flash and ambient light the whole evening. I bought the Westcott FJ80 as a backup to my Canon RT600 because a strobe failure would have been catastrophic on that assignment, but I never used it. I'm sure it's a great piece of equipment, but a half an hour of testing that afternoon kept giving me over exposed shots so I brought it with me just in case but I never fired it up. The FJ80 will require a bit more time and understanding, but I feel like it will be a good tool.
The AF and AF Tracking on the R5 worked beautifully in all light levels that evening, not a single frame was out of focus and there was a lot of what would have been interfering subjects along with the light. All in all, I can't imagine a more capable platform than the R5, but I'm sitting here setting up the R5c, so we'll see!
Thanks Jim! I saw not flash conflicts so I assumed that the R5 performed most capably at hi ISO's!
